Leaving Car Reminder Alert

I need an alert to remind me to take phone with me on leaving the car. The Reminder App leaving car alert looked promising but the alert only sounds after a 20 second delay. I have left the car by then. Is there a work around say an alert as soon as Bluetooth or Carplay is disconnected?


Thanks

iPhone XS, iOS 12

I've never used Shortcuts (or Workflow) before but from what I've read it appears to take a building block approach to putting together various "actions" that when complete can carry out an App based task or tasks.


Use the Shortcuts app on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Shortcuts User Guide - Apple Support


Must admit I'm intrigued enough to also give it a try to see what Shortcuts can do, so I've download App and currently working my way through the above Apple guide, whether it will do what you require only time will tell but you may find an alternative way while messing around and learning.
